This is not what mumble does. Mumble requires you to connect to a voice server as you do with Ventrilo or Teamspeak.

If you read what this program is and does, it's more related to a instant messenger with chatrooms than a voice communication client.

It would add a new level of communication to games such as Battlefield, where you can currently only communicate to your squad with voice, this way you could talk to people near you / the enemy. I see valve doing something cool with this.

I wrote them to ask if they had plans for a Mac client. Got some jumbled up auto-reply about it being available for Xp and Vista. hehe Asked if that was helpful... so replied it wasn't and said I didn't think they even read my question. Received a note that my ticket was closed and filed to suggestions. I think they have a hard time with reading comprehension.

I have spoken to some of the developers who wanted some feed back and there will be a free version as well as a paid version.

@terrorstride

As far as I have tested it you can set up how the voice works so it can be just like vent where you here everyone just the option of making the voices fade. add qPandap or Xares to test.

I'm not looking forward to this. It would be pretty annoying to try and communicate with a friend who isn't nearby you in the game, or coordinate a larger-scale assault of some kind (raids & bgs in wow for example).

I could see it being cool in some games though, but the inconvenience would probably make it more of a novelty than anything.

@volatile0773

not if you make your own server :)

So yes it CAN be free.

It's not a chat client in that way. This is a marketing tool. The actual software is pitched at developers for incorporation into their video games.

let me know if you'd like to test it out, ( Fu3lman )
